The Central Louisiana Chamber of Commerce will host a Strategic Luncheon for its members to learn more about Louisiana Job Connection from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday, July 23, at the Sai Convention Center, 2301 North MacArthur Drive in Alexandria.

The Louisiana Department of Economic Development recently announced the creation of Louisiana Job Connection, a new, free website that will help meet the talent-recruitment needs of Louisiana employers, while serving as a centralized hub for job seekers.

Louisiana Job Connection is designed to address the needs of employers with innovative job posting-and-matching functionality. It will be available to all employers with a Louisiana tax ID.

Luncheon admission is $20 per individual ($25 for non-Chamber members), which includes the meal. Tables for eight people can be sponsored for $250.

Those planning to attend are asked to RSVP by Monday by calling (318) 442-6671 or emailing dyerby@cenlachamber.org.
